Asus P5G-MX User Manual

ASUS P5G-MX 1-15
1.7 System memory
1.7.1 Overview
The motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Dual Inline Memory
Modules (DIMM) sockets.
A DDR2 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR DIMM but has a
240-pin footprint compared to the 184-pin DDR DIMM. DDR2 DIMMs are notched
differently to prevent installation on a DDR DIMM socket.
The gure illustrates the location of the DDR2 DIMM sockets:
1.7.2 Memory congurations
You may install 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2 DIMMs
into the DIMM sockets.
• For dual-channel conguration, the total size of memory module(s) installed
per channel must be the same (DIMM_A = DIMM_B).
• Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the
same vendor. Refer to the DDR2 Qualied Vendors List on next page for
details.
• This motherboard does not support memory modules made up of 128 Mb
chips or double-sided x16 memory modules. .
